I’d Love to Have a Coach, but I Just Can’t Afford It.

There are a lot of excuses for not building coaches into our lives.

One of my favorites is, “Sure, I’d love to have a coach, but I just can’t afford it.”

So…start with what you can afford.

If that’s nothing, ask 10 people you respect to give you a little coaching on a project you are working on (or on your soul). I’ll guarantee that 2 of them will say yes (if they don’t, I’ll give you a little coaching myself!).

I have coaches I pay (my counselor, for example). But when I first started building my team of coaches, every coach was a volunteer.

I’d find someone doing great youth ministry, and I’d take them to coffee every few months.
